    Vox and Marshall Rigs.

    Two new versions. Drives have been matched to amps in each Scene. Hopefully pretty right now. Please try and report back if you get a sec. Cheers.

    Vox and Marshall Rigs.

    Thanks for giving them a shot. I'm still tweaking them and will pop them up on Axe-Change once I'm satisfied they're presentable. Cheers.

    Vox and Marshall Rigs.

    No vids for these as I'm out of time today, but here's a couple of 8-Scene Vox and Marshall Rigs, both voiced with a Strat and/or Tele. The kind of thing that would get me through any gig without too much trouble. You'll need 23.05 or later to run them. Tweak the gains for humbuckers.

    Thank you so much for the kind words, Paul. I'm glad you've gotten some use from my presets. That makes me very happy and encourages me to keep at it.

    How to make lower gain Plexi pre set sound full?

    I've had a shot at it* for you too. The alignment was a little out in your cab block and the levels were bordering on dangerous. I've created another cab channel with DC's and used the EV12L as one of the two cabs. It smooths things out and adds a nice midrange as well as having the extra...

    New Logic X Mastering Feature

I like that it's analysing and creating a 'signal...

    Mr.Gilmour Lead - Modded to include Clean Scene ...and other stuff

    OK. The V12's might just be the right choice then. I believe the middle and neck pickups are very reminiscent of the '65 set which would put you in that parking lot along with the gruntier bridge pickup. If I get some time later I'll try to coax what you want from that set and make a quick demo...
  24. Burgs

    Mr.Gilmour Lead - Modded to include Clean Scene ...and other stuff

    You'll be wanting the '65 Set. Ben's a huge Knopfler fan and has done his best to can that sound in those pickups. I'll be demoing them as soon as I can.
  25. Burgs

    Mr.Gilmour Lead - Modded to include Clean Scene ...and other stuff

    I love those pickups, Greg. Just the right amount of clean twang plus the extra clout of the bridge pickup. Highly recommended.

    Fender Tone Master Pro....

    Fender sent me one around 3 weeks ago.
